The Last of Us REVIEW! Adam Sessler Reviews

[@WritingOnGames]

Every so often I come back to this video even nearly three years after the game's release. One of the best game reviews I have ever come across. The world of game journalism misses you, Sess.

[@stickkey]

I just came across this review and it's as mediocre as many other reviews.

[@kjames460]

stickydude it’s a fine review, troll.

[@supak108]

Ah dude I know this is an old comment but I love your channel! You could be an Adam Sessler yourself, don't stop making content!

[@sid1662]

Yes! Just popped into to watch this again before playing Last of Us Remastered in 4K. Always preceded by Adam's extraordinary review.

[@apictureoffunction]

@@stickkey and what about it is mediocre? Please illuminate it for us

[@Rev3Games]

At long last, here's Sessler's The Last of Us REVIEW! Adam Sessler Reviews Naughty Dog's latest - and perhaps greatest - game yet. Let us know what you think!

[@AbdellaAli]

Thought it was a great review, Sessler always has a way with words. I'm personally mildly nervous about the gore as I am a bit squeamish, but the concept is too interesting to pass up.

[@thesagster101]

#want

[@willbrine1404]

Something else to add to my list of wants. *Damn you!*

[@JoshuaCook]

Another game that could be,again, used to help people who don't game understand the medium. Adam mentions in the review that this is a story that couldn't be told without the freedom of a video game. It looks to have a strong narrative and tone, something that we love to see in great literature and film. Unfortunately, it will end up on Fox News as a violent "game" peddled to children. So sad.

[@DeAnoJackson]

And I have to wait until after E3 to play it...dammit.

[@TheWheatless]

Sessler's reviews are always so insightful and intelligent, while almost never taking extreme stances on any game, no matter how good it is. Truly an excellent reviewer.

[@crashclank1238]

He is great. But he is a bit too biased sometimes. He gave Uncharted 3 a 4 out of 5 and he wanted to give Snake Eater a 3 out of 5.

[@tonertonki]

Crash Clank I agree, he can be biased more often, he gave Titanfall a 5/5, While Infamous Second Son a 3/5. He's a biased reviewer.

[@TheWheatless]

tonertonki How does that make him biased? He liked one game and didn't like another game as much. That, in itself, is not necessarily indicative of bias. And really, if you're paying attention to the numbers that the reviewers give, then you're setting yourself up for disappointment. What matters is WHY they gave those numbers. Did they dislike a certain mechanic? Do they dislike a certain genre? Everybody is "biased" by the gaming background they have. That's why you look at multiple reviews for a game and see what they liked and dislike, then decide if you like and dislike the same things.

[@Yodagamer1]

tonertonki Titanfall got better review scores by alot of reviewers even the metacritic is higher. It's also very different genres so they aren't even all the comparable anyways. You just want to say he's biased just because of his scores not agreeing with you.

[@tonertonki]

2007pepsilover Here's a hint, I don't give a rat's ass if you don't agree with me. That guy is biased as shit. Microsoft pay off.

[@BootyBot]

I sold my xbox so I could buy a ps3 and play the last of us. It was a decision I don't regret. the last of us is a piece of art. I hope this game is kept in some kind of historic library so it can be remembered a hundred years from now. It's really the best video game I've ever played.

[@zavatar11]

You should really pick up some of the other PS3 exclusives too, I know the PS4 just came out and the Xbox One is coming out soon, but they are soooooo amazing. They're a definite pickup imo.

[@ImbaSoulDC]

I actually JUST bought a PS3, and bought this game, as well as Uncharted 3 (already played the others). TLoU is amazing, and so are the other Naughty Dog games. So worth it. I'm glad I didn't play these games before haha. Everyone is spending money on next gen with very mediocre games, while I am on current gen having an amazing experience and no want to upgrade just yet. Can wait for Second Son and the new Uncharted though :)

[@bluec5834]

Your a fucking liar. You sell a system just to buy a current gen one. Gtfo you've never owned an xbox.

[@BootyBot]

lol. Why would I lie about something like that, that's ridiculous. I had a 360. I used to play bf3 everynight on it. Yes I bought a current gen one. I'm a college kid I barely have enough to eat, let alone buy a 500 dollar system.

[@Montesama314]

What makes the game most interesting to me is that it isn't really all that original: Precocious girl with the cure, gruff world-weary partner, resistance leader against the overburdened, possibly corrupt government, hell the 'zombie apocalypse' theme itself have all been well-treaded paths--but as Adam says, the writers make it all FEEL new. It's like collecting a bunch of used parts from a junkyard, but making a car that gets you across the country.

[@wafasaleh67]

Didn't u hear him he said it's a familiar story it's just told in a very good way

[@spencerjames3551]

+Montesama314 It's all about the execution, not the concept.

[@GForceIntel]

Nice and ceative comment.

[@crono3015]

Just goes to show execution has just as much value as originality.

[@scottcobain27]

I'm so happy there releasing last of us on ps4 because i just switched from xbox one to ps4 and never played this game.

[@kellymoon3406]

You're in for a treat, I played three times in a row and loved all three times.

[@scottcobain27]

[@spuddy98]

I've played and finished this game so many times I've lost count and it still manages to stir my emotions. Gameplay, graphics, storyline, characters, combat, it's all brilliant. Without a doubt the best game I have ever played, no other game has even come close to this.

[@cecarter10]

I've been playing video games since the the original Mario, and this game is the best game I ever played. It plays with your emotions, and draws you in like a good book...

[@bobbleheadz12]

Everytime I hear Vanishing Grace (the music that played when Adam gave the score) I can't help but tear up a little

[@Xxbte96xX]

I know how you feel!

[@troytheguilty]

I still come watch his old reviews from time to time. Sessler has always been a favorite

[@MrChaos500]

This game is the most beautifully crafted piece of art I have seen in my short 13 years of life not until the last year have I look at games as more than things you play for a bit then have your tea, but creative forms of media and art and this is the best game I have ever played and I hope if they do make more (Heard roomers) that they still focus on Joel and Ellie.

[@BigNasty20]

Yeah! You should definitely try Heavy Rain! I loved it as well!

[@HD_Simplicityy]

I am 21 and I agree with you...The Last of Us is though, for me, one of the most beautifully made video games of its genre. OUTSTANDING motion capture acting by Troy and Ashley, outstanding narrative progression, character development and emotion all throughout. A rare beast and a different kind of fun for a video game like that.

[@danielandres1579]

I'm 13 and i couldn't have said it better myself. The Last Of Us is THE greatest video game of all time ❤️. And dude, you're awesome 🙏✌️! It really amazes me that someone my age loves this game just as much as i do :).

[@HD_Simplicityy]

Its not the greatest...but id put it up there.

[@ForeverRepublic]

This game like effected me emotionally, and the DLC was one of the most moving experiences I've ever had as far as videogames, movies, TV shows and books go. It is of a quality and caliber that we almost never see in games. You have to think about it to appreciate it, it's a very different kind of game than the rest. The only other videogame that came close to the emotion in The Last of Us was Red Dead Redemption.

[@MisterCatMan]

so true man, i feel the same way. i love it when games take me with them emotionally. i really did care about ellie and joel, what happened to them just like i did about john marston. my 2 fav games of all time just because i couldnt stop thinkin about them weeks after.

[@MisterCatMan]

***** ikr, i hope they make a sequel, they can still tell so much about this storyline. same for red dead redemption but i think that will be coming soon ;)

[@MisterCatMan]

***** yes also im very curious for the movie, hope they dont fuck it up tho. its a masterpiece of a game, not because of content but no other game ever got to me this hard

[@Fshenmue]

to anyone who Criticizes The Last Of Us......obviously you did not try the game, or eve don't know anything of the game, I have Xbox 360 exclusives and PS3 exclusives, I played 19 hours this game, it is not like anything else, it probably the best game in this generation, in touches your feeling as a player and human from every where.....

[@mariomeneses4555]

Adam sesseler is the Shakespeare of video game reviews

[@veryMPressive]

well said

[@nocaptostop]

+Mario Meneses Matthewmatosis is a much better reviewer issue without being pretentious.

[@Weapon0fCho1ce]

+ShellofaMan12 what is he pretending to be, someone with some semblance of and appreciation for vocabulary? The only reason I can fathom for calling him pretentious is because you can't for the life of you wrap your head around big words. He is an English major, after all, and god forbid if he doesn't want to communicate his opinions with grunts.

[@nocaptostop]

Weapon0fCho1ce Oh chill out what the fuck do you owe Adam Sessler? I don't like his reviewing because he's saying a lot without saying anything. I can wrap my head around as many big words that he pukes out but at the end of the day, I want a solid, intelligent review without thinking a critic has to shove the dictionary down my throat. THAT'S why I prefer Matthewmatosis, who gives honest and intelligent reviews without thinking he has to over-complicate what he's saying. Check him out after you're done getting mad at people who hurt your feelings and calling them fucking grunts for some reason.

[@Weapon0fCho1ce]

+ShellofaMan12 My sentence regarding communicating his opinions with grunts is referring to his use of vocabulary; I'm not sure what you think I meant. Look, I can appreciate wanting reviews that are more approachable (I'm subbed to matthewmatosis myself and have been for a while), but that doesn't mean people shouldn't be striving to be more academic with games, their subject matter, and how they relate to other media. This is clearly a person who wanted to put as much effort into praising the game as the developers did in crafting it, and that's something that itself should be praised. Personally I'm thrilled that there are still people out there who don't dumb it down like you seem to want. If you think he's not saying anything I encourage you follow along with a dictionary; you'll find that every word he uses is quite apt.

I love Adam sessler. He's just such an underrated talent.

[@iStrikeZ1]

well i thought the same about the corner killing at first but you have to keep in mind that joel is not sam fisher or snake that are trained for this stealth stuff, he is just a normal guy that tries not to get caught so it makes sense that you cant pull off this kind of stealth moves.

[@lfanroy4137]

"Anthropocentricism"... I both love and hate English for the same reasons.

[@hkoizumi3134]

Man... this was one of the best game i have ever experienced. Naughty dog managed to perfectly mix between the cinematics and the gameplay that I hope it set a new benchmark for other developers. The intro alone thug my emotion heavily and I was instantly invested in the main Character Joel.

[@davetownersville]

lol "Fallacy of anthropocentrism"? It's a video game review, Adam.

[@MatthewJP1986]

I'm still playing the game but thought I would take a break and come watch this review again. Adam, you have incredible insight and it really makes me appreciate the game. It's a game I can't play for too long at a time since it's so powerful and draining at the same time. It's a nervous anxiety and gasp for air above water, it really takes its toll. I thought about it all day at work, it's the kind of experience I wish I could take back in time to show people the potential this medium has.

[@RustCohle072]

People who say the ps3 sucks clearly don't know about the excellent exclusives like uncharted, god of war, the last of us and journey to name a few

Last of Us is a game that sells consoles. I owned a ps3 but it broke (My fault, got it off Craigslist from a shady mofo" But I am considering buying the last of us ps3 bundle..

[@crashclank1238]

This just isn't one of the last gen best games, its one of the best games ever made

[@lRedBaronl]

I miss Adam :(

[@CreativeUsernameEh]

Not hating, but can someone tell me why the Last of Us is so good? I've never played it, I don't have the right console. To me, it looks like some typical stealth+shooting, and a typical "get the cure to safety" and you know, zombies like things. Besides the amazing graphics, what makes this game as amazing as people say?

[@DARKRIMASTER9000]

It cannot be described honestly. But what makes this game in particular so good is the gripping game play. The health bar is the thing you need to keep an eye on, each hit you die a little inside in real life. This being supplies are literally scarce. The story has you play someone who should be hated, or considered an asshole (Though you'll end up understanding and liking Joel) The combat can be a bit wonky, nonetheless great. The enemies take a ton of bullets, so shots must count. Did i say supplies are limited....very limited? Well other than the gameplay, the compassion and emotion of an actual human that is put in a survive or die situation. The characters are what brings this game out into the spotlight. They interact with each other not as if they have to, but converse in a way you feel like you're there. Back to the gameplay. Humans are the the most difficult to fight against and you will see why. The infected are the least of your worries in this game (sometimes you won't see any infected for a while). All and all, The last of us isn't really something you can describe. Only experience. I would HIIIIGHLY recommend this game if you want a gripping story, gameplay that can be steady and smooth or chaotic and fast paced combat. I speak for most when I say indescribable gritty gory fascinating take on the already worn out zombie apocalypse genre. :) hope this helps mate.

[@marvin9578]

for me it was the amazing story line that griped me

[@DARKRIMASTER9000]

It's very emotional. It made me cry at some parts. You will lose reality a bit one you play this game.

[@RustCohle072]

The review tells you almost everything about it. Includes a great story, characters, it's very violent and has the most detailed world and level designs i've seen in gaming

[@crorens]

because its never boring, unlike other shooters where you spend 14/15 hours of campaign just killing stuff, here the gameplay is much more diverse. exploring, stealth, shooting, cutscenes, driving scene etc. it just never gets boring

***** Gotta say the original Left 4 Dead was good, the second one however sucked major balls! Anyway you can't even put L4D in the same league as the Last of Us. This game is a true masterpiece where the Left 4 Dead series is decent at best, gets repetitive rather quickly. If your going to reply please make it a sensible response :)

i disagree, left 4 dead 2 is amazingly good, as it fixes all the problems the first game had, and introduced a more diverse weapon arsenal. it even has all the campaigns from left 4 dead 1.

[@josevonbuergenwader2]

anything with 5 syllables when there is a synonym with 2 syllables is definitely a $10 word. but yeah he probably could replace much of his vocabulary with more layman words as long as the same message gets across.

[@donsaiditwoud]

I love the storyline. When I think spores, I think what if GMO crops start mutating. (In the opening sequence it actually hints at this with the newspaper article)You take away the clickers and those Bigger things(can't remember the name of them) and you have a very plausible future scenario.

[@TheL1arL1ar]

There are cans of food they heal a little automatically when u pick them up. And there is cans of food in the kick ass multiplayer.

[@RagnarokMic]

You can choose to sneak and shoot when you wish, when you play on Survivor and have ridiculously limited resources you, you begin to realize how much more the stealth option was actually available when you took the brute force approach. And I can understand some not enjoying it, as it's an extremely cinematic game that makes narrative just as important, purely substance over style (though it's style is phenominal as well. It's one of the truest survival horror's I've ever played, sure top 10.

[@asterr001]

Adam, after 5 years I found you gain. You sir, still got it.

[@frankcasamento74]

This was my 2013 goty and a game that I enjoyed so much. This is up there with uncharted and mass effect and gears of war series that I've really truly enjoyed this past gen

[@GreatSTrendkill]

I'm curious as to your idea of how that would make a better story. 1. if sarah didn't die joel would be a completely different person and would probably not be a "survivor" therefore wouldn't have been qualified to take the job of smuggling ellie. 2. I could see this one but i think most people joel included would have figured it out and it would be an obvious "plot twist". 3. i am very curious about this one

[@TheGuyWithTheHair18]

This game is so amazing, I am currently trying to beat it on survivor to get the final two trophies for the platinum trophy. This game keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout the whole experience, there's nothing more satisfying than beating a part you were stuck on earlier. Survivor however, keeps on challenging you, making it that much more wonderful. If you haven't already, I highly recommend you pick this up and give it a try.

[@cruxitocruz6533]

I just came back from playing TLOU, I haven't played the game since it came out. I do miss Adam Sessler quirkiness and well spoken reviews.

[@Zinfidel1]

Wherever Adam is, i hope he reviews TLoU2 just because i want to hear what he has to say. Sometimes when i think about TLoU i think about this review and end up watching it again. It's a fantastic review that described the experience perfectly. 5/5 review

[@Price1way]

I miss your video game reviews Adam. I still remember your times with XPlay. Brings back memories of how much of a gaming nerd I once was.

[@outofworkgamer4113]

Adam is THE best reviewer the gaming industry has ever had

[@chrischimera]

It should have let you play on survivor from the start it would have been great. I did enjoy hard and liked how they disable listen mode (even though you can do that from the menu) the rarity of bullets/supplies and using your shivs only on shiv doors did make it more challenging though but once you get the bow its way more fun)

[@KingOAnime]

2. and 3. These ideas all kinda coincide with each other. If Ellie keeps her immunity a secret, the way I was thinking was that near the end of the game Joel finds out or Ellie finally caves and tells him. When they get to the Firefly lab, Joel finds out that Ellie's mom/dad is a bigshot with them and instead of wanting Ellie to be smuggled out of the city because of love or devotion, they do it because they want to dissect her for the cure, which Ellie doesn't want.

[@ojon12389]

I just wanted to point out a glitch I had. When Ellie was supposed to hop on to the floating board, she looped into pacing back and forth. Had to load the checkpoint right before it, but it only happened once. Still, it was funny.

[@wagstag89]

I'm only about 5 hours into the game right now and what I can say so far is that it has tugged at my emotions more than any game I've ever played. I'm not the kind of person to get worked up over a movie or game but Naughty Dog REALLY makes you feel a connection with these characters and sends you on an emotional rollercoaster that takes this game to a new lever..its an experience. That is extremely rare for me. Combine that with the atmosphere and the overall game play and it's easy to see why this has been so successful. This is one of those games that will stick with me forever

[@glenhoerner8837]

I've always been of mind that story and characters should be the first thing a video game cares about, which is why I'm not crazy for COD or whatever. (But that is why I go crazy for games like Mass Effect). But it sounds like the real problem you have is not with the combat, but with the moments in between with Ellie and Joel where you have to find some way to get past an obstacle. Those moments weren't for gameplay, but for dialogue and character development for the two.

[@fdffdfef5817]

There was a recorder which recorded a doctor saying that there are other immunes and that they have tried to get a cure already and that their success rate was low.

[@tomharvey4807]

Just completed the game and I'd say its quite a special game, I havn't experienced anything like it before. Along with Zelda Ocarina of Time, FF 7, the first Halo game, Metroid Prime, Metal Gear Solid, Shadow of the colossus, GTA games, Battlefield, Resident Evil, The Knights of the Old Republic and Rainbow Six, it's one of the best and most unique gaming experiences I've had. This is not a game to be missed and if you enjoy playing games, do yourself a favour and play it.

[@funkyflights]

By the way great job on the review… Your really good at it… Kept me interested throughout…

[@-drak-8274]

So how much longer until TLOU 2 ?

[@McDerpx]

To be honest it does have some glitches, but they always give me a laugh so I don't mind. They usually stay for a specific time or until I shoot or something. One glitch that happened to me: falling through the floor when I executed an enemy. I loved it though.

[@KingOAnime]

I'll put each one in a different comment to make it easier. To start with 1. Keeping Sarah alive would have been a great motivation for Joel. The way I was thinking of it was to have flashbacks in the game to Joel teaching Sarah on how to survive, fight, and be like he was in the game. They could flashback whenever Joel teaches Ellie about the world or surviving. Then it could come to a head when Sarah, like Tommy joins the Fireflies and walks away from her father, opting for a better life.

[@tommy1thousand]

Something in this game got spoiled for me but is it still worth geting?

[@SEEMSL3GiT]

Adam, you are one of if not the best reviewer out there because of your professional language and incredible analysis of the content and context of the game

i play the game on the evenings and have no problem finding matches although it usually takes like 2-3 minutes for me

[@RustCohle072]

You can't really fault it for the fact that your allies can rarely get detected by enemies because it would suck if you were trying to get through an area silently and your allies alert them, blowing your cover.

(Cont'd) With so many scavengers around the land, resources are bound to be scarce, which means that weapons would be scarce. Darwin's law of survival of the fittest truly comes into fruition with the gameplay and that's very impressive. Not only do you have to watch yourself around EVERY enemy, but you also have to stay concealed and strike when the moment calls, because if you don't, then you will very well die...easily. It adds intensity and a harrowing feeling to the gameplay that no other-

Mr. Sessler could you please re upload your Uncharted 2 review in HD. Thanks

[@downwitursyztem]

Do a lot of people play online? I'm debating whether to buy the online pass

[@GerryReid]

Playing this brilliant game again on the PS4, I miss Adam Sesslers reviews

[@Apotheosi5]

my first sneaking mission... i slowly approach the clicker elli comes running stomping in front of the clicker, i wince... nothing happens

[@spectramaximus]

Does the song touch anyone else in a weird way

[@MacktheFilet]

I'm not sure what happened, I searched for your comment after I got the notification and it wasn't here. I saw it was here yesterday though. There must have been a delay or something.

[@thepopeofmope]

It used to but me, too. At the same time though, it's nice that the AI isn't blowing your cover.

[@newbieOo]

Agreed, just finished uncharted 3 and most of beyond 2 souls. Can't wait to get to Ni no kuni and the last of us! Any other titles I should look out for?

[@cloudlockheart93]

Hello! Does anybody know what music is playing in the background while Adam was talking in the beginning of the video?

+Rampant Insomniac Proud of yourself?

[@AC3Conner]

That's the first time I used that joke so yes I am proud

[@cloudlockheart93]

Good for you! I guess you're a better person now. I'm so proud of you! I'm so proud that this is as best life can get for you.

[@MrSiloterio]

+Cloudlockheart They've been using Bill Kiley's music since I've known them from 2012. I think he's on Bandcamp.

As for 4. Ellie is a bit naive about the way things used to be, but she knew what a record was, what video games were and such. It would've been interesting if she had a very limited knowledge about what the old world was like and Joel taught her a bit, showing her what records were, who Elvis Presley was, what video games were and such. This would coincide with the flashbacks to Sarah and Joel wonderfully. These are just a few ideas I had. For me, the game missed out on a unique story.

[@nscoby9311]

One thing I experienced in TLOU & loved & never experienced in any other game was the action. I wasn't just taking part in a shootout or a fistfight but was more feeling, feeling every pull of the trigger every target hit every gunshot wound every punch was just amazing & very imersive!

[@kutiiriye]

I miss Adam sesler

[@davefan16]

he just did a video podcast with Kevin from Attack of the show, talking about what went down at G4 before they left.

[@KingOAnime]

One big problem for me was that I felt the developers really missed out on some potentially great opportunities. They played it safe and never really branched out of a typical escort the cure to the world type of plot. This plot had huge amounts of potential in and they easily could have made this game much better if they had simply changed 4 things. 1.Don't kill Sarah, 2.Keep Ellie's immunity a secret till the end, 3.Have Ellie mother/father be alive, 4.Have Ellie be oblivious to the old world

[@tiedtkeio]

I think Last of Us isn't the most entertaining game, but it's arguably from an artistic and narrative perspective the best game ever created. The voice acting and directing is mindbogglingly good. Every little bit of dialog and detail to pureness and perfection. I'd go so far to say that this is the best story ever told (that I've heard/experienced anyway), and this coming from someone who has throughout my life read tons of books, played hundreds of games and seen thousands of movies.

[@stefanzxcv]

one of the very rare games which i consider virtually flawless.others that come to mind are uncharted 2, mass effect 2, red dead redemption, KotOR and san andreas.bioshock infinite would be if its story didn't hinge so much on the ending info dump and i felt it was too convoluted to understand on 1st playthrough.all imo of course.

[@Arthrimus]

The gameplay suits the type of story being told, and the mechanics are solid, so gameplay does deserve a high score. Yeah, it's linear, but that is done to focus the storytelling. You can't have it both ways, a game must either sacrifice player freedom, or developer direction. More player freedom means less developer control on how the story is taken in. A storyline in an open world can never be as intense and focused as in a linear game.

[@lostn65]

That never happened to me... strange. I would try reloading an earlier save if I were you. See if it happens again.

[@EddieVertigo]

I very recently got to play and beat The Last of Us: Remastered for the PS4, and I've gotta say Adam Sessler was spot on in his review, he absolutely nailed it on why it really struck a chord with players. A haunting game that was definitely worth playing!

[@zengara11]

I am just happy that I played it before watching anymore of the gameplays, it is clearly the best game I have ever played (even though I have to admit, that I simply couldn't cry at the beginning where Joel lost his daughter, because I watched pewdiepie make fun of the dead.....he really couldn't be quiet back then).

[@Mishyana]

They do both, though. Given enough time, the infected either 'evolve' further (runners -> clickers -> bloaters), or they die, burst, and serve as a spore dispersal site. I don't think there's enough cognitive ability remaining to target an airport specifically.

[@SimonCleric]

It's not technically auto-aim, just a little bit of stickyness for a crosshair. Sure, if I had keybord+mouse I wouldn't need it at all. But with a controller, it's just another frustration.
